Yotatech calender contest #2
 

Well it's time for the yotatech calender contest once again. Last year went pretty well so it'll be the same format this year. Here's a link to last years winners: https://www.yotatech.com/forums/f2/calendar-winners-45982/
and a link to last years calender: http://calendars.lulu.com/content/89451

Post up the best pictures of your truck, 4runner, Tundra, Tacoma, etc. for a chance to be printed in a 12 month calendar. This is an off road forum so bonus points will be given to trucks that are being used off road. However, we will pick at least 1 street (nice and shiny) picture. The staff will choose 11 of the best pictures submitted. Keep in mind that this is only the second time we’ve done this kind of thing so not even we know what we want to see. Maybe just nice scenery in the background, maybe airborne, maybe a truck on its side, who knows. We are not professional photographers so keep that in mind if you’re submitting something artistic. The 12th picture…the staff will pick a handful of the best pictures and let you guys vote for your favorite. The reason the staff will be doing most of the picking is because the last time the membership tried to vote on a forum wide thing (bumper stickers) some people’s toes were stepped on.

Guidelines:

1. Post your pictures here. For display in this thread, please reduce the size to 640x480 or smaller. Any pictures larger than this will be deleted.
2. Final pictures must be at least 1600x1200 pixels in size (2 mega pixels). Ideally 3300x2550, 300dpi is best (8 mega pixels). Pictures smaller than this may be considered, however, I’m still testing things out to see how bad smaller pictures print out. So make sure you have high resolution pictures available.
3. BMP, GIF, or JPEG formatted
4. Color set CMYK (if that means anything to you)
5. Landscape orientation only, no portrait.
6. Limit of 5 submissions per person.
7. Deadline for submission: Oct 31, 2005

You will be able to order calendars directly from www.lulu.com for about $12 each. The final pricing hasn’t been set yet. Hopefully you can order them by December 1st, just in time for Christmas. And yes, the 12 lucky winners still have to pay for their own calendars!

Here's mine. Originals are 2272x1704 and otherwise meet the requirements. Originals available upon request.

i have a suggestion: i would love to see on one of the pages, a collage of faces of all the (submitted) members. sort of like you would see at a neighborhood pizzashop w/ pics posted on a cork board

Are you saying just the ones who get picked, or everyone?

Woops...I just copied and pasted from last year's thread, missed that deadline part. Let's make the deadline Oct 31st.

Yes, whatever pictures are posted here on Oct 31st will be judged. So yeah, you can change your mind.

that should still give me time....i think i'm getting to head home around oct. 9th :rockin:

are you sure you wanna look at all those faces for a whole month??

Yours should go in last years... you have the old sticker! :lol:

This year I will be taking photos specifically for the calendar up until the deadline.

Here is the first submission that I photographed this evening. Oddly enough, today was the first time the snow has reared it's ugly head this year. Hopefully I can get some good 'winter' photos before I leave on holidays.

I will update this post as I take more submissions.

I don't have Photoshop this year, so my photos won't look as crisp as they used to :(

One of the cheapest YotaTech stickers around! :rockin:
